Weston House

Weston House (Snodgrass/Utroska Property), 538-540 10th Avenue South; c. 1869. A two and one-half story house, it is of frame construction has mansard roofs. Alterations include; conversion to apartments, re-siding, porch reconstruction, and entry stoop replacement. The house was built with fifteen rooms, colored marble in the vestibule, and handsome, inlaid wooden floors. Although altered and therefore lacking integrity of design, the building still is a good local example of the Second Empire Style. The scalloped roofing shingles, roof forms, and tower metalwork are of special significance. The house was built for John Copeland Weston.
